Our host was quick to respond and very personable. The place is described very well. The amenities are plentiful. Very well stocked. Who would have thought if I hadn’t brought our own fixings for French toast, that they would be provided - “big win” we left you new cinnamon and sugar & white powdered sugar too and maybe a new syrup! Thank you for the very generous welcome gifts! We will be back! Your furniture/bedding is very comfortable and fixtures are of great taste.

There were a couple of challenges upon arrival, but our host responded quickly, and we were able to get the TV's working and figured out how to manage the thermostat. The Hot Tub was great. The property was neat and clean. We had a great time.

Our stay was really perfect. Whenever there was a hiccup with the golf cart, the owner took care of it right away. His cart was in the shop, so we had to use an outside rental, but he quickly brought us another one each time. I felt very heard. I was especially impressed with the cleanliness of the home and the amenities. I highly recommend this rental! You will not regret staying here.Note to owner: Consider including the golf cart charge in the nightly rate and increasing the price slightly per day. This way it feels more seamless, less like a money grab, and it avoids surprises for guests who might skim the property details, like me.

Beautiful beach house

Beautiful home in a great location next to the beach, and only a 5 minute drive to the ferry and to the local stores. Plenty of room for a larger group and multiple families. It was kept very clean and in great condition, and the hosts were very helpful. They even included margaritas as a welcoming gift! We will definitely be staying here again in the future. Highly recommended!
